A birthday photoshoot gift at Chateau St. Gerlach: an unforgettable evening

On a serene Saturday evening, I had the privilege of capturing a special birthday photoshoot at Chateau St. Gerlach. This chic venue, located in the picturesque Houtem Sint Gerlach, provided the perfect backdrop for a surprise photoshoot organized by a son for his mother in honor of her 60th birthday.

An evening to cherish

The session began around 6 PM, a time that marked the golden hour for photography. This moment called for flexibility, something I, as a photographer, gladly embraced. The family, consisting of the father, mother, their adult children, and their partners, was ready to capture this special evening. It was striking that everyone, without having planned it beforehand, was dressed in stylish black and white. This gave the photos a timeless elegance that perfectly matched the ambiance of Chateau St. Gerlach.

Starting in the rose garden

We began the session at the picturesque gazebo in the rose garden. This flower-filled corner provided a romantic and serene background, ideal for the initial family photos. It was particularly special to witness the warmth and affection between the family members, especially as one of the partners was pregnant. This added an extra layer of meaning to the photos; capturing not only a birthday but also a new beginning.

A chic location full of art

Chateau St. Gerlach is renowned for its beautiful gardens and the park full of impressive sculptures. These artworks provided an elegant and artistic addition to the photoshoot, giving each photo a touch of grandeur. The family visibly enjoyed the surroundings and the moment, which made the shoot even more special.

Dinner in style

After the photoshoot, the family went to a dinner to conclude this special evening in a festive manner. It was a session full of love, joy, and beautiful memories, a perfect tribute to a remarkable birthday in an equally remarkable setting.
